 The best [...] I spent for Christmas! January 6, 2009
Wendy K. Smith (Raleigh, NC)
I bought this guitar for my 7 year old son who loves any kind of music, and not only has he enjoyed it, but my 10 year old son too! The guitar has a very realistic electric guitar sound when on "guitar" mode, or you can move the switch to "tv" mode, plug it into the tv and learn how to play. It's a great toy to have and your child will have fun while learning how to play an instrument. I was so happy to have found this on Amazon!
P.S. We actually purchased Guitar Hero World Tour for Christmas for our older two boys, and this has been a perfect tool to enhance the musical experience for all three of them. Guitar Hero is fun, but I love how this guitar actually teaches chords and strumming as well as the fun tunes you can play.
 Had high expectations but was disappointed December 27, 2008
L. Ludwig (United States)
My son was 5 when we gave him this present. It is a difficult toy, I would recommend more for the 10+ age group. However the most disappointing aspect was that it only lasted two months. My son takes care of his toys, so it wasn't due to 'abuse'. I am glad I only paid $25 here on Amazon.
Perfect for a little one November 30, 2008

I bought this for my 7 year old son at a local retailer on clearance. I was very wary at first because of the deeply discounted price. However, my son has learned so much and mastered the first cartridge. I am now looking to buy more.
I did buy a guitar hero for Christmas in 2006 and traded it in at a local retailer after a day of loud hard rock that I felt was not suitable for my then 6 year old. I am not personally opposed to the hard rock music but for a little one playing I didn't feel GH was appropriate for him yet. This one is definitely more age appropriate.
My son was frustrated at first but quickly caught on. The system asks you if you want to go slower or faster to help the little learning hands set their own learning and playing pace.
I would definitely recommend this guitar. I do suggest that parents offer assistance and sit close by the first few rounds to ensure their child understands how to speed up or slow down the game. It is the parents responsibility to help match the level of the game to fit each child's individual learning needs.
 He loves it November 25, 2008

I bought this for my 4 year old grandson. He loves it, because it's like Daddy's guitar hero. He can play it now, and according to my daughter, it will challenge him for quite some time. I'm very happy with this purchase.
Really educational guitar October 12, 2008

My 9 year old son did not have the patience to watch and learn the notes. It could have been a great learning tool, but it was too much for him. Guitar Hero is more his skill level. He still loves it, just don't expect your child to become a virtuoso - he just enjoys banging around on it. It has held up very well.
